The immobilizer system In order to enhance theft protection, the scooter is equipped with a «PIAGGIO IM- MOBILIZER » electronic engine locking device that is activated automatically when the starter key is removed. Upon start-up, the «PIAGGIO IMMOBILIZER» system checks the starter key, and only if this key is recognised will the immobilizer system allow the scooter to be started.

WARNING NEVER RIDE THE VEHICLE WITH ADDED ACCESSORIES (CASE AND/OR WINDSHIELD) FASTER THAN 120 KM/H. WITHOUT THESE ACCESSORIES THE VEHICLE MAY BE DRIVEN AT A HIGHER SPEED WITHIN THE LEGAL LIMITS. IF THERE ARE NOT-PIAGGO ACCESSORIES FITTED, OR AN ABNORMAL LOAD, OR IF THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN A GENERALLY GOOD CONDITION, OR WHEN- EVER WEATHER CONDITIONS DEMAND IT, SPEED SHOULD BE FURTHER REDUCED.
Front suspension locking system (02_12, 02_13, 02_14, 02_15, 02_16, 02_17) The front suspension locking system simply prevents vehicle tilting when the «Q» switch is pressed. The warning light «E» starts flashing when the key switch is set to «ON». This means that the system is enabled for locking activation.

Engine oil level In 4T engines, engine oil is used to lubricate the distribution elements, main bearings and thermal group. An insufficient quantity of oil can cause serious damage to the engine itself. In all four-stroke engines, a loss of efficiency in oil performance and consumption should be considered normal.
necessary to check the oil level and top it up if required. If after having topped- up the oil, the warning light still comes on while braking, at idle speed or while turning a corner, it will be necessary to take your vehicle to an Authorised Serv- ice Centre.
Recommended products AGIP CITY HI TEC 4T Engine oil SAE 5W-40, API SL, ACEA A3, JASO MA Synthetic oil Hub oil level (03_05, 03_06) Check the oil in the rear hub. (oil content ~ 250 cc). To check the rear hub oil level, proceed as follows: 1) Rest the vehicle onto its centre stand, on level ground.
Page 49
CAUTION AN EXCESSIVE QUANTITY OF OIL CAN LEAD TO LEAKAGE, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE ENGINE AND THE WHEEL TO GET DIRTY. CAUTION WHEN REPLACING THE HUB OIL DO NOT LET THE OIL COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE REAR BRAKE DISC. CAUTION FOR OIL REPLACEMENT, CONTACT ANY AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRE AS THEY ARE EQUIPPED TO DISPOSE OF USED OILS IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY...

CAUTION IF THE VEHICLE IS USED ON DUSTY ROADS IT IS NECESSARY TO CARRY OUT MAINTENANCE CONTROLS OF THE AIR FILTER TO AVOID DAMAGING THE ENGINE. Recommended products AGIP FILTER OIL Oil for air filter sponge Mineral oil with specific additives for increased adhesiveness Cooling fluid level (03_11, 03_12, 03_13, 03_14) The engine cooling system operates by forcing circulation of fluid.
Page 54
If it is necessary to top up the coolant frequently, or if the expansion tank is completely dry, you should look for the cause in the cooling system. It is therefore essential to have the cooling system checked at an Authorised Service Centre. Replace coolant as indicated in the scheduled maintenance table.
Recommended products SPECIAL AGIP PERMANENT fluid coolant Monoethylene glycol-based antifreeze fluid, CUNA NC 956-16 Checking the brake oil level (03_15) The front and rear brake fluid reservoirs are both positioned on the handlebars. Pro- ceed as follows: 1. Place the scooter on its centre stand and make sure the handlebar is centred; 2.
Page 56
WARNING ONLY USE DOT 4 CLASS BRAKE FLUIDS. COOLING SYSTEM FLUIDS ARE HIGHLY CORROSIVE. MAKE SURE THAT IT DOES NOT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE PAINTWORK CAUTION AVOID CONTACT OF BRAKE FLUID WITH EYES, SKIN, AND CLOTHING. IN CASE OF CONTACT, RINSE WITH WATER. THE BRAKING CIRCUIT FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC, THAT IS, IT ABSORBS HUMIDITY FROM THE SURROUNDING AIR.
Battery (03_17) To access the battery, proceed as follows: 1. Place the scooter on its centre stand; 2. Open the saddle, following the previously described procedure; 3. Remove the two fasteners "A" and the cover "B". WARNING 03_17 IN ORDER TO AVOID DAMAGING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, NEVER DISCON- NECT THE WIRING WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING.
Long periods of inactivity If the vehicle has not been used for long periods, it is necessary to periodically re- charge the battery, bearing in mind that the battery tends to go completely flat within around three months. The battery must be recharged with a current load equal to 1/10 of the battery rated capacity (~ 1A ), for a period not longer than 8 hours.
Front light group (03_24, 03_25, 03_26, 03_27, 03_28, 03_29) To access the tail light bulb: - Insert a screwdriver in the notch on the side (see picture) of the Gilera emblem and remove it. - Undo the screw «A» and the four screws «B».

Rear optical unit (03_36, 03_37) To access the rear light unit bulbs, undo the screw «A» and remove the glass «B». Now tighten the screw «A» in its seat. To replace the stop light bulb «C», hold it and turn it anticlockwise. To replace the rear tail light bulb «D», hold it and pull it outwards.
Number plate light (03_39) Remove the screw «C», then take out the bulb holder. 03_39 Helmet compartment lighting bulb (03_40) Open the rear boot and insert a small plain slot screwdriver in the lateral notch to detach the snap-on glass "D", then replace the bulb. 03_40 Rear-view mirrors (03_41) The mirrors can be set to the desired position by adjusting the mirror frame.
Front and rear disc brake The brake disc and pad wear is automatically compensated, therefore it has no effect on the functioning of the front and rear brakes. For this reason it is not necessary to adjust the brakes. An excessively elastic brake lever stroke may indicate the presence of air in the braking circuit or a failure in the braking system.
ORDER TO AVOID THIS, WE RECOMMEND WASHING THE VEHICLE FRE- QUENTLY WHEN RIDING IN THESE ROAD CONDITIONS. Puncture The vehicle is equipped with tubeless tyres (without inner tube). In the event of a puncture, contrary to the situation with a tyre with inner tube, the tyre deflates more slowly, resulting in a greater steering safety.
2. Be careful to rest the vehicle on its centre stand disabling the front suspension locking system; 3. With engine off and piston at the bottom dead centre, remove the spark plug, add 1÷2 cc of oil through the opening (adding more oil may damage the engine). Operate the starter button 1-2 times for roughly 1 second to turn the engine over slowly, then insert the spark plug again;...
